General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

I'm not sure why anyone is particularly surprised Kson jumped at the opportunity to join a corpo. Indie life isn't what it's chalked up to be and while Tatsunokos are mentally ill, her numbers are dropping. Maybe she thought she'd be fine as an indie or had big dreams, but in the end plans change.

Kson is a streamer through and through. She's never show a single inclination she could be the next Tamaki so I'm not sure why anyone thought she could pull it off. She's an idealistic savior fag who thinks she can fix Mikeneko. Tamaki fired her friend for breaking NDA. So anyone expecting her to fix VShoujo or similar will probably be disappointed--in any case there isn't really anything to fix it's just a loose association of VTubers.

Besides Kson is prime whale bait for whatever reason. So she'll fit in with VShoujo's culture to a degree and I'm sure the JP branch will be slightly different to fit the market. HoloEN isn't HoloJP, NijiEn isn't NijiJP, and conversely VShoujoJP won't be VShoujoEN. Obviously, there are similarities they take from their parent companies but there are still key differences. Japanese VTubers generally stay away from politics. I don't see why that'd change.

This is probably the best case scenario Mikeneko too (if it is her). It's a fresh start and she needs a corpo backing her, no matter how loose. And it doesn't hurt a friend will be with her. I doubt she'll ever be the sanest person but having a job is better than whatever she's doing right now as an indie.

Seems like a win-win arrangement all around besides for a bunch of internet anons who probably don't even watch Kson complaining about hypothetical political stances that haven't even happened yet.

You know GSC its more for the money when they give figures for the most popular vtubers regardless of their content.

I dont think nendoroids are a staple anymore.
I want to pout about Vox being at the front of the line because I know I'll never get a Millie Nendo made, but he and Salome own Niji at the moment for all intents and purposes.
 
Seriously though, some people need to chill a bit. And hey, Vshojo and Hololive as collabed in the past. Imagine if they pull that off.
And, it's only been Mouse so far right? I wonder how those collabs were prepped. How many lines were drawn, what was okay'd, not okay'd etc etc. How much was kept away from the rest of the VShojo group because they're the exact type Japanese corpos would rather jump in front of a train than risk them pulling a yabai. How many managers standing around or listening in on the collabs. And what the NDAs possibly look like
:thinking:

Kiara collabed with Nyanners once.
 
Well it really does sound like her in the video.
As probably the only Rushia fan here I'd bet at least one and a half of my balls that that's her. Her fake innocent voice is really distinctive. The way she and Kson are depicted in the promo art fits, too.

I'm rainbow-sticker about the news. Mike Cat's streams haven't appealed to me much because she's fucking miserable. She's still doing GFE but I don't care about that. She replaced Rushia's crazy self-deprecating humor with really having no confidence. Bitch needs a job.



Also, God, I know you read the thread, and you know that months ago when I said Kson's big secret plan was to lead VshojoJP and collect all the lost Holos I was kidding. Stop fucking with me (or bring back Artia too).
 
I remember when someone posted his self awareness arc where he realized he "wasn't real" and wanted to come to our world fascinating stuff sad hes dealing with this shit

Speaking of calling characters traps she said that the gacha game she was playing had actual trans characters in addition to traps that the audience also spammed trap at
that true?

I really would like to see this video and timestamp it would explain a lot

Shylily joining would be fucking hilarious as Vei would seethe to end all seething

I agree Kson won't change and may even lend her expertise to fix up Vshojo

As for nux the vast majority of his collab partners had less subs than him when they first collabed with him including Melody
I'm blanking out on when it happened but I will see what I can do. I got a shit load of studying to do so I will plug the podcast in the background and link it here when it comes up. I think it was during the destiny ep but I will go back and see.
 
So let me get this straight:
-KSON/Coco is upset how her career was progressing in Hololive and decides to leave on good terms.
Okay.
-KSON's subs spike afterward to the point she is close to Coco's sub count and has all the creative freedom without corporate agency overlords.
Great.
-She then decides to not be independent and throw her lot in with another agency.
What?
For all her promises of bigger and better things she otherwise would not be able to do under Hololive's branch, she does this in the end.
I'm not angry or upset, just disappointed.
I mean, really?
VShoujo?
I get she is friendly with the talent but I expected Snuffy or Shylily to join them before KSON even considered it.
I can see Holo member like Mel and Choco who had been rekt by SusanTube would jump ship at this point and join Vshojo Twitch platform and together with Melody making ethots seeth and moans.
Nah, Kiara had her infamous planned stream with Vei until Vei made that callout or whatever the fuck and people spazzed out. She backed out of the collab despite Kiara continuing to push for it and Nyanners stepped in.
I think having Kson come over and act as “leader” in order to reel in those tribalism of Vshojo might just work. If there’s less phantom dick pain Zen meltdown or Nyanners and the gang dogpiling Nux or just simply shut the fuck up vs doubling down like Vei then maybe they just work.

JP ironically love the idea of cute girls being lewd and unhinge stuff (Kagura Mea). We will see how much Vshojo manage to get their foot in JP market and get some juicy sponsorship.

This move from Vshojo is guaranteed get blacklist by chinks but chinks market is on verge of housing bankruptcy so expecting those spam will be gone soon.
